Here's a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G6Y5k2QknE) of The "Blue Dogs" Hank Futch singing "Butter Beans" with the help of the crowd at the Handlebar in Greenville, SC

The recording mix is pretty bad. Little Jimmy Dickens does a lot better job but it is his song to start with :tiphat:


September 1966 pub date

BUTTER BEANS
Burnes, Burns, Colvin

Little Jimmy Dickens


Just a bowl of butter beans
Pass the cornbread if you please
I don't no collard greens
All I want is a bowl of butter beans.

Just a little piece of country ham
Pass the butter and the jam
Pass the biscuits if you please
And some more of the good ol' butter beans.

Bread and gravy is all right
A turnip sandwich is a delight
But my children all still scream
For another bowl of butter beans.

When they lay my bones to rest
Place a rose upon my chest
Plant those blooming evergreens
But all I want honey is a bowl of butter beans.

Just a bowl of butter beans
Pass the cornbread if you please
I don't no collard greens
All I wan't is a bowl of butter beans.
